This paper presents the basic concepts of stability in fuzzy linguistic models. Theauthors have proposed a criterion for BIBO stability analysis of fuzzy linguistic modelsassociated to linear time invariant systems [25]-[28]. This paper presents the basic concepts ofstability in the general nonlinear and linear systems. This stability analysis method is verifiedusing a benchmark system analysis.

This paper attempts to present the new approach to design sufficient number of systematic fuzzy linguistics in matrix form and map the Fuzzy Linguistic Variable Matrix, which contains linguistic terms, into numeric domain using Fuzzy Normal Distribution based on the Parabola-based Membership Function. Existing fuzzy set theory is difficult to design the systematic and sufficient fuzzy linguisti...

Abstract. The 2-tuple linguistic computational model is an important tool to deal with linguistic information. To extend the application of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets and avoid information loss, this paper introduces hesitant fuzzy 2-tuple linguistic term sets that are expressed by using several symbolic numbers in [0,1]. Considering the order relationship between hesitant fuzzy 2tuple...

Most group decision making (GDM) problems based on linguistic approaches use symmetrically and uniformly distributed linguistic term sets to express experts’ opinions. However, there exist problems whose assessments need to be represented by means of unbalanced linguistic term sets, i.e. using term sets that are not uniformly and symmetrically distributed. The aim of this paper is to present a ...

Given a finite totally ordered set of linguistic terms, the operations intersection and connected union provide a lattice structure to the set of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets. In this framework, hesitant fuzzy linguistic descriptions of a given set of alternatives are considered. A distance between hesitant fuzzy linguistic descriptions is introduced based on the properties of the lattic...

The paper introduces fuzzy linguistic logic programming, which is a combination of fuzzy logic programming, introduced by P. Vojtáš, and hedge algebras in order to facilitate the representation and reasoning on human knowledge expressed in natural languages. In fuzzy linguistic logic programming, truth values are linguistic ones, e.g., VeryTrue, VeryProbablyTrue, and LittleFalse, taken from a h...

Hesitant fuzzy linguistic decision making is a focus point in linguistic decision making, in which the main method is based on preference ordering. This paper develops a new hesitant fuzzy linguistic TOPSIS method for group multi-criteria linguistic decision making; the method is inspired by the TOPSIS method and the preference degree between two hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets (HFLTSs). To...

To address the hesitancy, inconsistency and uncertainty of decision makers’ cognitions, linguistic interval hesitant fuzzy sets (LIHFSs) are efficient tools. This paper focuses on studying the application of LIHFSs. To do this, two correlation coefficients of LIHFSs are defined, which needn't consider the length of elements in LIHFSs or the arrangement of their possible interval values. To addr...

A neuro-fuzzy system for character recognition using a fuzzy Hough transform technique is presented in this paper. For each character pattern, membership values are determined for a number of fuzzy sets defined on the standard Hough transform accumulator cells. These basic fuzzy sets are combined by t-norms to synthesize additional fuzzy sets whose heights form an ndimensional feature vector fo...

The paper deals with an idea of a linguistic knowledge representation and a linguistic inference. Relational linguistic fuzzy model with weights of rules is utilising. The probability of linguistic values of antecedent and consequent variables, calculated according to Zadeh’s definition, is proposed to formulate a linguistic fuzzy model of a stochastic system. The linguistic inference procedure...
